My Calling

In a ‘me’ culture,

God calls me to support and serve,

to love in response to hatred.

In a world of despair,

God calls me to hope –

confidence in my future with God.

In the rhetoric of contention,

God calls me to unity –

likemindedness in Christ.

The world offers confusion;

God offers joy and peace in believing.

Philippians 2: If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,

Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
